>> actually think it probably *is* a poor time to short the *market*.<<

It would be a logical spot to end the "5 of 3". Double bottoms all around bartender! We've got a full moon, too. I plan on taking down my Double Inverse stuff before 9:45 tomorrow, and maybe my shorts, too......

Hard to say what kind of "IV" we get in this environment. Probably meandering mindless jello into year end, then a nice false dawn boost into inauguration. Then the widow-maker (AKA "V down").....

"a poor time to short the *market*. ".

You can do it if your timing is perfect.

Example: ( at MarketWatch this morning )

(Wed 5:27am) US stock futures point to flattish start

(Wed 7:21am) US stock futures point to higher as GM rises.

(Wed 8:13am) US stock futures turn lower as Best Buy warns.
